Who is it for:
The Klipsch THX-8000-L is a great choice for those building a home theater in a medium to large room and prefer a hidden solution without floor-standing speakers. It is ideally combined with a subwoofer (such as the THX-1200-SW) and rear speakers (THX-8000-S or THX-5000-SUR) for a 5.1 or 7.1 system. Suitable for movies where clear dialogue (as a center channel) and powerful front effects are important.
